End a Meeting as Host and Understand Completion / Re-Entry

End a QCMM Meeting as Host and understand immediate completion, blocked re-entry, overtime behavior, and attendance finalization.

Host End Is Authoritative

The scheduled end time does not automatically cut off an active QCMM Meeting Room. When the scheduled time is reached, the Host can continue in overtime or explicitly end the room. Choosing End Meeting is the authoritative close: QCMM marks the room ended and disconnects participants.

What Changes Immediately

  • The Meeting Room session receives an actual end time and ended status.
  • Confirmed bookings are finalized immediately instead of waiting for the scheduled-end lifecycle.
  • A booking with attendance evidence is marked Completed; a booking with no lobby, admission, or live-presence evidence can finalize as No Show.
  • The completed Meeting moves into history using the authoritative end time.

Re-Entry After Host End

Once the session is ended, QCMM denies both Host and attendee room entry. This is different from merely passing the scheduled end: an active room may continue beyond schedule, but an explicitly ended room cannot be re-entered.

Leaving Is Not the Same as Ending

A participant can leave or temporarily disconnect without ending the Meeting for everyone. The Host should use End Meeting only when the session is actually finished. Provider or browser disconnects are tracked separately from the authoritative Meeting lifecycle.

Verify the Result

  1. End the room from the Host controls.
  2. Confirm the room reports that the Meeting ended and participants disconnect.
  3. Check Host and customer history for the finalized booking state.
  4. Try the access link again and confirm QCMM blocks re-entry.
